Thanked: 2027The perfect,worst shave
So I touched up one of my palmeras today,10strokes on the 12K shapton pro,20 on the Zulu,30 on leather.
The shave was fantastic,effortless,two pass BBS,the perfect storm
Two hrs later,I have the worst case of razor burn I have EVER had,my face is on fire,same soap same routine,same prep.
Moved to a new local a few mos. back,have allergy problems here I have never had before,maybe the cause??
this is really wierd.

Coud be an allergy. I've had similar lately but more immediate reaction where even my lips were burning & I didn't shave them .
I wondered if it was possible to come to patches in the soap puck which were more caustic than others.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

Whenever I've had any razor burn it comes on pretty quickly after shaving not 2 hours. Maybe something in the air.

This is easy,,,, you forgot to tape the spine while honing.
You need to use the Green 3M tape; the green is hypoallergenic and prevents razor burn.
